Last summer I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a month in France. It was the most exciting time of my life. I stayed with a family in Montpellier. It was very different from my life in the United States. Every morning we bought fresh bread from the bakery (面包店) and had coffee in a bowl instead of a cup. The milk came in bottles fresh from the dairy (牛奶场) .These differences were skin-deep,however,I soon discovered other more important ones.

Back home in Winnetka,Illinois,I wouldn’t think anything of taking a ten-minute shower every day,or even twice a day in summer. In my French host family,we showered only once every two days and used far less water. First you turn the water on to get wet,then turn it off and soap yourself up,then you turn it on again to rinse the soap off,so the water is only on for about maybe two minutes. Although it was pretty hot there in summer,I’d never taken showers in cold water!I couldn’t imagine what it was like in winter.

I also noticed that although the'family had a car,they hardly ever used it. The father took the bus to work in the morning and the mother rode her bicycle when going on short trips. The family was well-off rather than poor,but they tried to drive less. As Americans,however,we are quite used to taking long showers and driving everywhere,using much more energy than French people.

Living in Montpellier and seeing people’s frugal life there,I get angry thinking of the resources wasted in the United States. When I came home,I was much more energy-conscious. I didn't drink coffee out of a bowl anymore,but I started riding my bike to school and turning the thermostat down at night.

1. According to Paragraph 1 ,Americans and the French are different in

A. their eating habits

B. their morning exercises

C. the way of cooking

D. their attitude to breakfast

2. What can we learn about taking showers in Montpellier?

A. People take showers every day.

B. People use a small amount of water.

C. People usually spend ten minutes showering.

D. People are used to taking cold showers.

3. We know from Paragraph 3 that the French family

A. lived a poor life

B. made full Use of their car

C. enjoyed taking short trips

D. had environmental awareness

4. The underlined word “frugal” in the last paragraph probably means .

A. quiet

B. simple

C. busy

D. private
